So I just read a friend's blog on how she coped with her caotic life the past 2 months. Loss of any kind is difficult, be it any age, gender, plant, animal, human, material things.
My 2 cents worth with food!
There is a reason why some food is called comfort / soul food.
The kind that reminds you of home, whatever home means for you.. Be it, where you were born or where you are now, the meals you enjoyed with friends, family or even by even by yourself sitting by the ocean waves in the sunset or early dawn... maybe with a book or with your pet and some music of choice.. For me, it has got to be the Indian Instruments with some piano in the background, ya, Sitar, Tabla, Flute & Piano....I'm in heaven!

Comfort food for some it is fried chicken and for some it is Tom Yum Kung/ Thai, hot n sour soup.

Some, plate of home made cookies with chai spice...

For others, a glass of cold milk and for some a rich smoothie.....for others a slice of chocolate Mangosteen Cake.

Whatever Works for You Dahlins!

Food is a great way to get our yaa yaa's out, our knoted muscles ease with a gentle massage of Almond or Olive oil with some turmeric and honey!

We connect & reconnect with our feelings, we communicate friendship, prayer, love, passion, culture, traditions,..... great satisfaction often comes from nourishing food and good company!

So folks... in this difficult love/venus wave..lets cope with all the available techniques and reach out to whoever/whatever works for us..

Life .... has a lesson for all of us, I am trying to learn it, I slip, I fall, I get off of my butt and try again.
My life lesson: IS TO SERVE, WITH LOVE!
